Claude Carter has finished second on each of his last four starts and with his lack of winning conviction is a slight concern, it might be worth siding with PARC DES PRINCES. The Nicky Richards charge has been raised 9lb for his recent distance success at Bangor but the five-year-old won with plenty in hand and is taken to record back-to-back victories. Toshi clearly sets the form standard but must defy top weight while Knight Valliant looks a tasty each-way bet at the forecast prices.
Parc Des Princes did well to win from an unpromising position last time and, with fitness assured, looks sure to put up another bold bid. Pillar of Hercules would be very interesting if the money comes, while Border Tale can continue his recent run of form.
Placed in a hurdle race from two starts. Beaten 28l by Countrywide Flame when second of 10 at 14-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Cartmel over 2m 1f (soft) in August. He is wearing cheekpieces for the first time.

Well beaten at 22-1 behind Ultimate when last of 14 on her latest outing at Catterick over 1m 4f (good) last month.
A positive market move for the Donald McCain newcomer, Lexi's Boy, would be interesting as the 76-rated Flat horse is switched to timber. Preference, however, is for the winning form of LADY CHLOE after she shaped well when recording a five-length success at Stratford on her hurdling debut. The filly was well fancied on that occasion and connections clearly hold the daughter of Noverre in high-regard, although don't rule out the chances of Blake Dean in the first-time cheekpieces.
Although this looks more competitive than the race she won on her hurdling debut, Lady Chloe can put her experience to good use and add to that success. Lexi's Boy and Mica Mika will be dangers if converting their Flat form to hurdling.
He has won two hurdle races and two chases from 2m 3f to 3m 1f on good to firm and good ground. Well beaten at 13-2 behind Postmaster when seventh of 9 on his latest outing in a chase at Bangor over 3m (good) in August.

If PALACE MERANO is ready to roll on his seasonal reappearance, he could surprise a few here with conditions back in his favour. He displayed little last term on soft ground but is taken to give a good account of himself having been dropped in class and his revised rating of 112 looks a workable one. He is likely to be given plenty to think about by Itzacliche and Toulouse Express, who can boast winning form on their most recent outings.
Itzacliche looks straighter these days and could follow up his Cartmel success. Ngong Hills has conditions to suit and may prove a different proposition after a first run for 2 years last month, while Irish raider A Little Different is well treated on the form of his chasing debut.
He has won two hurdle races and a NH flat race from 2m to 2m 4f on good to firm and soft ground. Well beaten at 28-1 behind Saint Are when sixth of 19 on his latest outing in a Grade 1 hurdle race in the Group 1 John Smith's Sefton Novices' Hurdle at Aintree over 3m (good) in April.

All eyes will be on the 135-rated Aikman as he makes his seasonal bow but while he is likely to prove very popular, preference is for ARCTIC COURT. The Jim Goldie charge was runner-up to the useful Liberate when last sighted at Haydock in May and, fresh from a summer break, the seven-year-old can continue on an upward curve here. Elsewhere, there should be plenty more to come from The Starboard Bow and he is worthy of close consideration.
This looks a match between Aikman and Arctic Court. The latter progressed nicely after running well here on his reappearance last term. However, there is a suspicion he is better over further and so preference is for Aikman who should relish this test and has plenty going for him at the weights.
He has won three chases at 2m on ground varying from good to soft to heavy. Well beaten at 4-1 behind Cabbyl Doo when fifth of 8 on his latest outing in a chase at Perth over 2m (soft) in May. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Miss Lucinda V Russell.

Dianne Sayer has enjoyed a successful season on the Flat with the progressive Hot Rod Mamma and could have another on ready to put a winning sequence together in the shape of ENDEAVOR, who remains well handicapped despite a 5lb rise for success at Uttoxeter last time out. Henry Brooke keeps the ride aboard this gelded son of Selkirk and there could be more to come. Dar Es Salaam was by no means disgraced when third at Wetherby in June and must be taken seriously, along with Prince Tam.
Endeavour is likely to be popular after his recent Uttoxeter win but, given that one's inconsistent nature, it may pay to side with the well-handicapped Dar Es Salaam instead. Indeed, recent Cartmel second Stanley Bridge and lightly-raced hurdler Hurlingham may well emerge as the selection's main dangers.
Placed in three hurdle races from six NH starts. Finished 15l behind Fair Gale when fifth of 8 at 7-1 on his latest outing in a hurdle race at Southwell over 2m (good) in May. He is wearing a tongue-tie for the first time.

Sedgefield winner NORTHERN ACRES remains on an upward curve and went close to defying his revised mark at Perth recently. There could be more to come and a bold bid is anticipated on ground which clearly suits. He gets the nod ahead of Tinseltown and Itstooearly, who are beginning look well treated again.
Northern Acres and Agricultural come into the race in the best form and, with a number having questions to answer, they look the 2 to concentrate on. Preference is for the former with the possibility of more to come. Short Supply should still be up to making an impact over hurdles at this level.
Unplaced in all six starts. Fell at the 10th when 7-1 at Carlisle over 3m (good to firm) in a chase won by Nicky Tam in April on his chase debut.

GUNS AND BUTTER went down by just a neck at Cartmel in August and he remains off what looks an attractive mark of 83. He appeared to relish in the soft surface on that occasion but the good ground predicted here shouldn't pose many problems and the step up in trip looks ideal. Some Catch returns to the larger obstacles, over which she appears most effective, and, along with Frontier Boy, commands the utmost respect.
A race with its share of quirky characters, including Some Catch, but she looks the most solid proposition after 2 wins already this year. Frontier Boy may still have more to offer on just his second start over fences and is narrowly preferred to Guns And Butter for the runner-up spot.

The well-bred GROOVY DANCER made a winning debut over this trip at Sedgefield in May and looks the one to be on now returning from a break, before she is likely sent over hurdles. The Weatherman looks the main danger after an encouraging C&D debut in May. Donald McCain's charge is a half-brother to the stable's winning hurdler Dorabelle and is entitled to improve with the benefit of that run now behind him. Winning pointer Bawn Reagh is another to consider.
Mitchell's Way, Bawn Reagh and Classic Kim all appeal on debut, but they'll have to go some to overhaul Groovy Dancer if that one builds on her Sedgefield win first time up. The Weatherman could be the one for the forecast.
